  • Argo Conquest engine swap

    Finally had time to swap out the engine on my Conquest. Nothin to it really, other than a few electrical issues (Tks Mike,)

    Here is a little clip of the Post Job "Test Run". The extra 35% HP really makes a difference. Not really any need for Low Range anymore. The snow is waist deep, and if I would have attempted this with the 20HP, I would have been stuck in Low for sure. Now I can spin the tracks, no problem in High Range.

    Nice! I like how the whole nose gets buried and it just chugs out of it. Well done!

          It's a 27HP, I got it from Arns (arns.ca). Mark Fauser is the guy I was dealing with <mark@arns.ca>

                That was insane. I thought we weren't going to see you again when you were going down into the snow a few times. Nice work with the engine swap.

                            What kind of electrical issues did you have? Were they specific to the swap?

                              The new engine was pre-wired with plugs remarkably similar to the plugs on the old engine...........exactly the same even. So, naturally, I assumed that I could just plug it in. This in turn fried my voltage regulator. At that point, I had to trace out the wireing and make sure what was what. Once I figured out what each wire was for it all went a little smoother.
